Escape to America's Paradise this November

Come to Saint Croix and experience the warmth of the island and its people, swim in the clear tropical waters and race The Beauty & The Beast Triathlon.

This year’s event will present itself as a tropical “race-cation” revolving around Thanksgiving weekend.

Wendy Ingraham, who posted nine top 10 finishes at the IRONMAN® World Championships, has also committed to join us in America’s Paradise. Not only will fellow athletes have a chance to race with and against triathlon legends, but they will also have an opportunity to hear stories and tips.

VI TRI, a non-profit committee and organizers of Beauty & The Beast Triathlon works with local charities, including the Virgin Islands Special Olympics, Guardians of Culture Moko Jumbies and the Lighthouse Mission.

The triathlon in St. Croix is most known for its beautiful landscape, year-round tropical weather and a challenging course. Joining us has never been easier as no passports are required for U.S. Citizens and American Airlines has recently waived their oversized luggage fees for bicycles.

Race registration is currently open here.
